I have had this shoe for a month and, besides training runs, I have run a half marathon and a 10 Mile race in them. This is the most comfortable running shoe I have ever had. The toe box is wide, which accommodates my broad foot, and the mesh is soft, so no black toenails. I''ve also had lots of compliments on the color. I will stick with this one from now on.

That great Pegasus spring is gone and has been replaced by a lumpy Brooks-like density. They lifted the back and you are forced onto the ball of your feet, so if you are a midfoot striker like me your metatarsals will be screaming at you after a few miles. The cushioning is only in the heel unit, so after getting forced onto your toes, you don't have a nice soft pad to land on. I can already feel the lumps and grooves in the sole of the shoe and it's been less than 20 miles. The upper is loose and since you're sliding forward, prepare to have your toes rub onto the rim of the front of the shoe. Man, why did Nike screw up a great shoe?

Zappos provided awesome service. They sent it overnight even though it was standard shipping. These shoes are for my wife and we were pleasantly surprised when the courier guy knocked on the door.

Love this shoe! I'm training for a half marathon and I had gotten shin splints in my old shoes. Shin splints cleared up within a week of getting these shoes! I agree with the other reviewers that they run a bit small, so half size up. Also, the toe box is wide enough to keep feet comfortable even after they swell in longer runs. I want another pair. Waiting for payday to order another pair. I actually had to drive an hour one way to get these shoes! Totally worth the time and gas money.

Surprise! I have worn a women's Nike Air Pegasus since the early 1980's! That is the only shoe I wear other than dress shoes and boots. For years I ran in the new ones, just knocked around in the older ones, worked in the yard in the old ones and then threw them away. I always have a new pair waiting in the wings! Yes, they are a bit pricey, but I shop at Nike outlets, wait for a sale on line and when I find a spectacular deal, I get two pairs. Now, I am 84 years old, had to stop high impact running, but my Nike's take me through 2 hours/day work outs including Zumba, strength training, step aerobics and mountain climbing. Thanks, Nike and Pegasus.

Brands I'd also recommend: None-just keep some of the conservative colors(mostly white and black)

I upgraded from the Nike Air Pegasus 28 as I could no longer find my size in that style. I have had zero problems. I've been running in Nike Pegasus shoes for decades. I have the bright yellow pair. They are definitely Neon Yellow. I get so many compliments on them and I feel safer knowing I'm so bright. The best part about these shoes? I finally qualified for the Boston Marathon while wearing them in my last marathon! So, yeah! Great shoe!

Great shoe! Very comfortable and fit great! Just be prepared for some bulk, since it curves out in the middle it gives your foot a lot of bulk. But overall, amazing shoe!!!

I love the Nike Pegasus. The color has grown on me but I'm very annoyed that Nike only offered such ridiculous colors with such a popular shoe. I guess that shows how much I really like these shoes, since I bought them anyway. I use them for running (3-5 miles) a few times a week and my last pair of 28s got me through a half marathon no problem.

Pegasus! I think this is the best sneakers on earth. It feels like my feet are wrapped in plush cotton blanket. I've read a review of someone wearing this model for 20 years and I wish to do so if Nike continues to make them. I wear dress shoes 6, sneakers 6.5. Nike 6.5 wide or 7 medium. I ordered 6.5 wide for this model and cannot be happier. These shoes are for work where I stand on my feet for 10 to 12 hours and I have no problem with them. Love the shoes and love Zappos!

I started running almost 2 years ago now, and have increased my mileage gradually to about 150 miles a month. From the beginning, I have been wearing Nike Pegasus 29s...these are the only shoes that have been truly comfortable even on my long 13+ mile runs. I tried another brand and had arch issues, also tried the Nike Dual Fusion and it just wasn't as comfortable long term as the Pegasus have been. I have short, wide feet with relatively high arches and these fit my feet well. The only complaint I have is I can't seem to get a full 500 miles out of these...after about 350-400 miles the cushion does seem to get pretty compacted. But for the price these have been very good to me. I will continue buying them unless another shoe really wins me over.

Not as good as the Pegasus +26, which I had before these. Arch support is not as good. And they cause blisters on my heals.

Brands I'd also recommend: The +26 version of this shoe is better than the newer +29 version

Color is way more neon / glow in the dark looking in person. But very fun! Also, this Air Pegasus runs a bit small. I'd recommend ordering a half size to a whole size up depending on how thick your socks are.

These are definitely my new favorite marathon shoes. First off, the purple color? Simply amazing. Secondly - no break-in period. They're comfortable right out of the box, I've had no blisters, nor any other pain. Highly recommend - am getting another pair soon, as I'm running (er...well, walking!) them into oblivion! As with most athletic shoes, at least for my purposes, I always go at least a half size, if not a full size, larger than regular shoes.

Since I started running two years ago, I have had 5 pairs of these shoes...and loved every pair. I have tried the Nike Dual Fusion and the Asic Kayana and neither shoe even compared to the comfort and overall perfection of the Pegasus. I have small, somewhat wide feet with a high arch, and the Pegasus fits my feet like they were made for me. These shoes have just the right amount of support and cushion without being heavy or bulky. I have run a half marathon in a pretty much brand new pair without any issues...they are that comfortable right out of the box. Now I am training for a full marathon and have been getting 400+ miles out of every pair. Even on my 20+ mile runs, these shoes feel comfortable the full distance, without toe issues or any other discomfort. I just hope they keep making them, because I am going to keep buying them!

The Nike Air Pegasus is the best running shoe I have ever owned - so much so that I immediately bought 2 pair. I have both the pink and the purple. I have a wide food and the toe box is just perfect. I wear a 9.5 and the 9.5 in this show fits perfectly.

I have been wearing NIke Air Pegasus for years. I over pronate but have found the moderate arch support in this shoe perfect for building ankle strength while running with enough support to not cause pain. This shoe works great for paved and gravel running routes over both short and long distances. The color may seem bright in the images but the actual shoe is a bit less intense.

These shoes are great for long-distance runner...plenty of cushion while being light-weight. Super comfortable I have worn them for a month of heavy running (12-20 miles/week) and they have felt great!

These are very comfortable and stylish. The violet color not loud; subtle and pretty. I followed other reviewers advice and ordered half a size up on Nike and they do not feel bigger, just more comfortable. I love Zappos!

I absolutely love these shoes. I have never purchased expensive sneakers. I was going on a boot camp trip for three weeks and needed shoes to exercise all day long in every day. I went to a real shoe store to find out was was best for me. And was introduced to these shoes. I hated the look of them at first, but I do not mind it now. They are the most comfortable sneakers that I have ever worn. First, I got them in wide width, which I discovered is perfect for me and makes such a difference in comfort. And they are so soft and comfortable. Right after buying them I went on my trip and started out with a seven mile hike along with cardio classes throughout the day. No problem I continued with seven more long hikes (run/walk) from 5-10 miles in the next couple weeks along with other classes and still no problems. I am so happy with them. I will be buying another pair. The only problem is the wide width for women only comes in one color. Suggested by Nike, I am getting a men's size 6½ which they say is the same as women's 7½W.(My feet measure size 6 on charts. But for some reason I have been buying sneakers at 7½ for the past few years. My toes need lots of space I guess). I am so happy.

Love these shoes. I just wore them all everyday while traveling and sightseeing. They were very comfortable & no tired feet! I did find a better fit with 1/2 size larger than I usually take.

I must say these tennis shoes are like slippers but with support. They are AMAZING. From the minute I put them on - they felt good. The shoe is so well made. I thought the color was more red than pink but they are more like "hot pink". I read the reviews which were helpful. I usually wear a size 8 1/2 but got an 9 1/2 and they fit perfect!! Its tough buying shoes online and although Zappos rocks still just never know if its going to be the right bit or not... and it really feels great when it is because I don't like returning any shoes and starting all over. My feet have always been sensitive.. arch issues and ball of foot etc. I even have arthritis in left foot, These tennis shoes are amazing. I totally recommend! I love Zappos forever and ever.. for offering such a great shoe selection for someone with "difficult" feet.. no doubt the best shoe store in the free world people!
